I bought this as an alternative to the evil Red Dye 40. This worked well, but know that it does take several bottles to make the color. When working with any red dye, it is easier to turn a chocolate base to red than a white base. It does have a very sweet flavor to the dye, but that should be expected by the ingredients used to make the dye. The red will not be that bright red of artificial dyes, after all what in nature is that freakish bright red, that is edible. These are all trade offs I am willing to work with to avoid artificial dyes.

Disappointing

I bought this food coloring for my daughters birthday party. I was making tiara shaped sugar cookies with pink icing. I could never get the color right and it gave the icing a somewhat bitter taste.
